Hellbound With You novel Chapter 921

Chapter 921 Risk it all

"Then… we don't have a choice, do we? We already could not do anything to help Zeke. We'd be damned if we just stood around and watched again as we allow his woman to die!" Alex stated.

"What should we do then?" Kyle looked at both Alex and Zeres with a grave and worried face.

"Zeres and I will launch an attack." After Alex laid out the plan, he faced Zeres. "She's powerful so we really need to attack her as though we intend to harm her, Zeres. Don't hold anything back… this is also for her sake as much as for ours. Don't hesitate to injure her if needed. Injuries still can be healed. But once she's gone, that is it. You get it, right?"

Zeres did not respond for a couple of seconds before quietly nodding. All of them were reluctant but they all knew that there was no other choice. Alicia's aim was set on reopening the gates. She even seemed unaware of their presence at this point. All that was in her mind was to rescue her beloved husband. With that intensity of determination, she had probably even gotten blinded by her overwhelming power right now. So they could only expect her to blindly attack them the moment they tried to stop her. Just by looking at her, they could tell that she was not going to let anyone intervene or stop her.

Another wave of her intense power crashed over them, and the silvery lights now turned fully scarlet. "Damn it! Now!" Alex yelled as they saw the darkness started swirling in that familiar fashion again. She really had the chops to open it!

Alex and Zeres attacked in sync just with a look at each other. Alicia turned towards them even before they could reach her. Her powerful magic pulsated from each of her palms, one shot aimed at Alex and Zeres each. Dodging her fatal attack with his fastest move, Alex's hand shot out and caught her wrist and held it captive. Alicia turned to him when Zeres suddenly appeared to her right, catching her off guard and gripping onto her other hand.

"Stop, Alicia!" Alex shouted at her.

"Alicia, please! You're going to die!" Zeres begged.

Her scarlet eyes welled. She heard them. She was aware. Her body trembled but her insane power did not subside in the least. "Let me go, please…" her voice was soft and weak and filled with nothing but pain. "I am already dead… Ezekiel is the only reason I am still here, alive. Without him, I… I don't think I can accept it. So please let me go…" she smiled at them. "Please let me follow him there."

Zeres shook his head. "No, you can't… you can't Alicia. Kiel didn't take you with him because he never wanted you to follow him there. Can't you see he wanted you to –" Zeres tried reasoning with her, but she cut him off.

"No!" she yelled. "Ezekiel didn't have the chance to take me, Zeres! I knew something went wrong! Something must have gone wrong! So, I'm going to go after him. He needs me –"

"You're not a demon, Alicia!!!" Zeres' gripped on her wrist tightened even harder. "You'll die before you can even do anything for him!!!" He shouted at her, not bothered to be kind with his words anymore. He just wanted her to snap out of it.

Alicia shook her head, refusing to listen to Zeres. "Let go… don't force me to harm you both…"
